Ford Fiesta (2002 - 2008) 1.4 TDCi Zetec Blue 5d (2008/08) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

Not much! A silver Fiesta is VERY anonymous.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

Impressed with the VERY low runnung costs.

Would you buy this car again and why?

Yes but from a different dealer.

What are you likely to buy next?

VW Up!

Type of dealer you bought from?

Franchised

Did you buy this car new?

Yes

What price did you pay?

£11,000

When did you buy the car?

July 2008

Did you get a good deal and why?

Got a good deal because they were coming to the end of this particular style of fiesta and wanting to make way for the new style. Also, turned up an hour before they were closing for the day at the end of a quiet week!

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Looks, comfort & economy. (That and the fact that they had our exact model parked in the showroom and we fell in love with it!).

What was the dealer like?

Fantastic, not pushy, very knowledgeable. (wish the same could be said for the servicing department).

What's it like to drive?

Quite a firm drive but it does have large alloys and low profile tyres so thats the price you pay for the good looks!

What's it like to park?

Very easy, good turning circle and good all round visibility.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Tracking needs checking every 3 months due to the very low profile tyres and the hundreds of speed bumps locally meaning we went through 6 front tyres in 2 years.

What's most practical about your car?

Decent boot size, 5 door practicality, good adjustment of seat and steering wheel to cater for me (6'5").

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Power folding wing mirrors that fold in with remote locking.
